Red Light Therapy in San Jose, CA for Collagen Support
Look Refreshed. Feel Confident. Naturally You.
Red Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment designed to support skin health by stimulating natural cellular processes that promote collagen production, improve tone and texture, and enhance overall skin vitality. Using clinically studied LED technology, red light penetrates the skin to encourage renewal without discomfort or downtime.
At Modern Aesthetics Medical Spa, we offer in-office Red Light Therapy using the LightStim ProPanel Anti-Aging system, as well as at-home LightStim handheld devices for ongoing maintenance and long-term skin support.
What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red Light Therapy uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to stimulate cellular activity within the skin. These wavelengths help support mitochondrial function, which plays a key role in collagen production, circulation, and tissue repair.
Unlike treatments that create controlled injury to the skin, Red Light Therapy works gently and progressively, making it a versatile option for patients seeking skin rejuvenation with no recovery time.
How Red Light Therapy Works
During treatment, LED light is delivered to the skin at clinically optimized wavelengths. This light energy is absorbed by skin cells, supporting collagen synthesis, reducing inflammation, and improving overall skin function over time.
Treatment highlights include:
Comfortable, non-invasive sessions
No heat, pain, or skin damage
No downtime or recovery period
Gradual improvements with consistent treatments
Safe for regular use under professional guidance
Red Light Therapy may be used on its own or combined with other aesthetic treatments to enhance results.
In-Office LightStim ProPanel Anti-Aging Treatments
Our in-office Red Light Therapy treatments utilize the LightStim ProPanel Anti-Aging system, a professional-grade LED device designed to deliver consistent, full-face and body coverage.
These treatments are ideal for patients seeking:
Improved skin tone and texture
Reduction in the appearance of fine lines
Enhanced collagen support
Faster recovery following procedures such as lasers or injectables
Sessions are relaxing, efficient, and easily incorporated into a broader treatment plan.
At-Home Red Light Therapy Options
To support continued results between visits, we also offer LightStim at-home anti-aging handheld devices. These devices are designed for convenient, consistent use and allow patients to maintain skin health as part of a regular skincare routine.
At-home Red Light Therapy may be recommended to:
Extend the benefits of in-office treatments
Support long-term collagen stimulation
Maintain skin quality between professional visits
Your provider can help determine whether in-office treatments, at-home devices, or a combination of both is most appropriate for your goals.
